This place is in Helsinki, the capital in Finland. It’s a park full of rhododendons. Very nice place to visit at this time of year. Lovely Day ( Bill Withers ) 👱‍♀️🎧🎶 ICMphoto.

Not a bad place to spend time. Nearby national park is one of my favorite places to photograph milkyway.

Tapion lukko on metsän ylimpään jumaluuteen liitetty puu, joka on kasvanut renkaan muotoon. Lukolla olaan voitu kansanperinteen mukaan sitoa erinlaisia asioita yhteen. Tapion lukko on voimakas apu monenlaisissa pulmissa. Sen avulla ollaan etsitty metsään kadonnutta karjaa tai ihmistä, toisinaan sitä on käytettty apuna sairauksien parantamisessa.

Tapioon ollaan yhteydessä lukon kautta, koska lukkopuuhun sitoutuu hiitolan/metsän voimat ja siten sen kautta ollaan oltu yhteydessä kaikkeen, mitä metsän piirissä tapahtuu.

Tapio´s lock is linked to the highest spirit of the forest. It is a pine that has grown in a shape of a ring. Finnish folklore tells that the lock has the ability to bind different things together. People have searched lost cattle with the help of the Tapio´s lock and also asked to help to heal illness.

People have been in contact with the forest spirit through Tapio´s lock since the lock includes the whole forest nature.
